Grace Church Orlando Podcast

The habits you repeat are shaping the person you're becoming. Every day, we're practicing something—whether we realize it or not. The question isn't if your routines are forming you... it's what they're forming you into.   This week we unpack Philippians 2 and discover how small, everyday choices can draw us closer to Christ—or slowly pull us somewhere else.

Relationships are complicated because people are complicated. In Philippians 2, Paul reveals the real problem behind so many of our conflicts: pride. Discover how the humility of Jesus can transform your marriage, friendships, family, and faith—and why the path down is actually the way up. 

What if the struggles you're facing aren't proof that God has forgotten you—but evidence that He's still shaping you? This week, we explored how God's grace doesn't just save us. It transforms us. And every day, we're invited to choose what we love most. 

What if the hardest thing happening in your life right now is actually God's way of advancing His plan? In week 2 of "You Are What You Love," Pastor Mike Adkins digs into Philippians 1:12–21 — and Paul's stunning attitude while chained in Caesar's palace. The lesson? The patterns you repeat are shaping who you become, and even your suffering can become a story of bold fait...

A lot of us want change, but our habits are shaping us more than our intentions. In Week 1 of You Are What You Love , we explore how the rhythms we repeat every day are forming the people we're becoming—and how Jesus can reshape our hearts from the inside out. 

When the Future Is Uncertain — Fight with Hope

When life gets loud, our hearts drift.  Anxiety grows. Gratitude fades. We forget what God has already done. Psalm 103 is a reminder to preach truth to your own soul: Don’t forget His goodness. Don’t forget His grace. Don’t forget the God who rescues, restores, and renews. If you’ve been feeling stuck, distant, or spiritually forgetful... this message is for you.

Psalm 51 reminds us that even our worst failures don’t put us beyond the reach of God’s mercy. King David’s story is messy, painful, and deeply human, but it points to a powerful truth: mercy begins where excuses end. If you’ve ever wrestled with regret, shame, or consequences from your own choices, this message is for you.

When life feels heavy and God feels distant, what do you do? This message walks through Psalm 42 and shows us that struggle isn’t a sign God is gone… it might be where you learn to need Him most. If your soul feels dry, tired, or desperate, this one is for you.

When life hits hard, you don’t drift on accident… you drift by degrees.  The question isn’t if you’ll struggle. It’s where you’ll turn when you do. God’s Word doesn’t just inform you—it lifts what life weighs down.

What do you do when life starts falling apart and nothing feels stable anymore? This message breaks down one of the most powerful passages in the Bible and shows how to stay grounded when everything around you feels chaotic. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, uncertainty, or a situation you can’t control, this will challenge the way you think about fear, strength, and where real stability c...

When your usual coping strategies stop working… where do you turn? This message dives into Psalm 61 and shows how David responded when he hit the end of himself. Instead of controlling, blaming, or spiraling, he ran to God:  “Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” God is not distant in your struggle. He is your refuge, your perspective, and your strength when you don’t have any left. 📖 Psalm...

What if the pain you carry is shaping how you see God? In this message, we step into the story of the empty tomb and discover how Jesus meets people in their darkest moments, calls them by name, and offers real freedom from the past.  If you’ve ever felt stuck, hurt, or unsure where God is, this is a reminder that He may be closer than you think.

Palm Sunday is often seen as a celebration—but underneath it, there’s tension.  The same crowd praising Jesus would turn on Him just days later. Why? Because they were looking for the wrong kind of Savior. In this message, we unpack how expectations shape what we see, how God often works differently than we want, and why following Jesus is less about control—and more about trust.

Church was never meant to be the destination—it’s where we gather so we can be sent. What happens here should shape how we live out there. The Spirit is already at work in the places you’re going next. 

This message explores how healthy churches deal with problems, why serving is at the heart of leadership, and how shared responsibility protects unity while the mission continues to grow.

The early church faced pressure and prayed for boldness, not protection. This message explores how courage grows when God gets bigger.

The rhythms you repeat shape who you become. This message challenges you to move past brokenness, re-center your life around Jesus, and step into the kind of transformation only He can bring—because what’s broken at the root can’t be fixed at the surface.

Identity isn’t what you believe—it’s what you practice. This message dives into Acts 2:42 and reveals the four habits that shaped the early church—and can still shape your life today. If you feel stuck, disconnected, or spiritually dry, this is your invitation to rebuild your rhythms and rediscover a faith that actually transforms you.
